IN PART OF ITS, “CRYSTAL CHRISTMAS,” CELEBRATIONS, LAST FORTNIGHT FOR, ‘ICE RINK… LOCATED AMONG TREES,’ WITHIN, ‘132 HECTARES OF LANDSCAPED GARDENS,’ THAT IS KEW GARDENS

Another press release we are grateful for is one from Kew Gardens, currently hosting its GlaxoSmithKline-sponsored exhibition, "Gardens of Glass: Chihuly at Kew," exhibition. In one section, entitled, "Skate," is talks about its ice rink, which has been open since November 26 2005. It says, `Skating is a traditional yuletide activity and one which has become increasingly popular in London. Last year, Kew Gardens hosted an ice rink for the first time and following its popularity, the rink will be back this Christmas. Located among trees outside the majestic listed Temperate House, this is a unique skating venue.' Sounds like fun, in very pleasant surroundings!
